Cereal has been a North American breakfast staple for decades. And it’s no mystery why. Cereal is quick and easy to prepare, and most importantly, delicious! There is a range in the nutrition content of cereal depending on the type. While some of our nostalgic childhood favourites are high in sugar, others are rich in fibre and protein and can be a nutritious option for a balanced meal any time of the day. Whatever you’re looking for, our Cereal Nutrition Facts Comparison chart below can help you find the right one for you.
Cereal Nutrition
The nutrition content of cereal varies depending on the brand and flavour. However, most cereal is made with wheat as the main ingredient, making it primarily a source of carbohydrates. The quality of these carbohydrates will differ depending on the cereal’s ingredients and how it was made.
Some cereals contain more whole grains and fibre, while others contain more refined flour and sugar. One potential downside of cereal as a meal is that it tends to be low in protein. In recent years, higher protein cereals have entered the market which are excellent options for a meal-worthy cereal. If your favourite brand is lower in the protein category, it’s not the end of the world. Consider serving it with Greek yogurt, a side of eggs, or adding protein powder to increase the protein content of the meal.
Cereal Nutrition Facts Labelling
With so many cereal options in grocery stores, it can be challenging to review them all to find the right one for you and your family. As part of Health Canada’s recent updates to food labels, cereal products are required to show nutrition facts for 1 cup of dry cereal. Previously, this rule was not in place, which made it difficult for consumers to compare and select products.
The following nutrients are required to be on each cereal nutrition facts table:
Serving size: 1 cup (weight (g)
- Calories
- Fat (g)
- Saturated fat (g)
- Trans fat (g)
- Carbohydrate (g)
- Fibre (g)
- Sugar (g)
- Protein (g)
- Cholesterol (mg)
- Sodium (mg)
- Potassium (mg)
- Calcium (mg)
- Iron (mg)
Some companies include additional nutrients, such as polyunsaturated fats or other micronutrients, but this will not be consistent across all cereal types as it is not part of the minimum requirements.
